Political Advocacy and Leadership / Educational Opportunities:

As our Wisconsin fire chiefs has learned, our departments' roles have expanded well beyond fire suppression. The most meaningful impact to have on our communities is to prevent injuries and fires from carelessness. To that end, the following steps should be taken to ensure proper public education. The Department of Public Instruction adopted NFPA's Learn Not To Burn curriculum in 1997 and Risk Watch in 1998.

A special task force or the Fire Prevention Committee shall investigate the statewide use of both NFPA curriculums.

Based on the results of the "use" study, methods will be determined to help educate local fire departments toward the effective use of prevention curriculum in our local schools.
